No harm done, hope he has a good Welsh Open defense.


Won't be easy. Tom Ford imo is always a very bad opponent for a first round bo7 match. And he seems to playing well against topplayers.

The commentators are treating Neil like it's his first match on TV, talking about how he might get nervous about beating Ronnie, and that's Hendry spouting this sh*t, wtf?

I expect Ronnie to have a good campaign there. <ok>

Subscribe the words TR said.. ever since the sitter of a red to right middle 1st frame, Robbo has grown on confidence. The first decent chance Ron had was this frame and he bottled it.

Hoping Day wins his first ranker.

No, I was probably being disrespectful to Robertson. Just, with the form he's been in, I'm surprised at the result.

That would be quite a blow to Robertson, could've had the match there, could be a turning point in a BO7. Surprised Ronnie nearly blew it with such a poor positional shot from the blue though.

Better lose 4-1 or 4-2 than a Kyren match all over again.... or Holt for that matter.

good response from Robertson you gotta say. after what happened the last frame. deserving winner in the end.

I'm not to disappointed by the result but just with Ronnies performance overall. dont need to repeat the same stuff again. weve been writing about it since Romania. Still have hopes for the World Championship but I'm realistic. Will he suddenly stop missing sitters or unforced errors he's been doing for months? Unlikely.

I find your optmism for the Worls refreshing <ok> I'm hopeful but realistic at the same time too.

I still think he can win a ranker until then, but has to do it in Wales or unlikely in China. Dont know if he'll enter Players Champs.

Yeah Neil deserved to win, he played pretty much immaculately throughout and Ronnie didn't do a great deal wrong apart from the sitters which cost him.

Missing sitters is just down to concentration, which has never been Ronnies strong point, he's still very much take it or leave it in my opinion and unless he finds this sudden urge to want to win no matter what then he's going to keep missing those easy ones.
